Without commenting on the coding problems (I'm not a programmer), I'd like to 
underline that the documentation is indeed a vast problem. I spent countless 
hours figuring out missing parts, googling for howtos and old mailing list 
posts. I think this truns away almost all potential users, because I don't 
see how it's possible to even setup Midgard without some debugging or posting 
to this list. Of course p�eople here are very friendly and helpful, but I 
think many people give up before posting because they think midgard is broken 
anyway.

Like I said, I'm not a programmer, but if I could help keeping the 
documentation current. BTW, I was thinking about setting up a wiki, it might 
lower the barrier for potential contributors and provide some extra docs. If 
there is interest, just let me know

Bye,

Andreas
